Barry County commissioners approve claims, budget amendment and set public hearing on PACE program
Summary
At the meeting commissioners approved $128,770.70 in claims, adopted budget amendment 25-A, and passed a resolution of intent to establish a Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program and call a public hearing on March 25.
The Barry County Board of Commissioners approved three financial and procedural items during the meeting.
Claims: Commissioners approved claims in the amount of $128,770.70. The motion was offered by Commissioner Campbell and supported by Commissioner Hatfield. The clerk conducted a roll call in which the following commissioners voted aye: Smelker, Toonison, Bassett, Carlton, Campbell, Getty, Hatfield and Jackson. The motion carried.
Budget amendment 25-A: The board approved budget amendment 25-A after a motion by Commissioner Campbell, seconded by Commissioner Getty. County finance staff explained that an error in an Excel spreadsheet had increased the requested expenditure from the figure shown at the Committee of the Whole meeting; that increase requires drawing on contingency in the General Fund. Commissioners voted aye in roll call (Bassett, Carlton, Campbell, Getty, Hatfield, Smelker, Toonison and Jackson) and the motion carried.
PACE resolution and public hearing: Commissioners adopted a resolution of intent to establish a Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing program in Barry County and called a public hearing for March 25. The motion was offered by Commissioner Campbell and supported by Commissioner Bassett. Commissioners noted they still had questions and would discuss details at the public hearing; the resolution reflects intent and will return for another vote after public comment. The roll call recorded ayes from Toonison, Bassett, Carlton, Campbell, Getty, Hatfield, Smelker and Jackson.
All three actions were recorded by roll call and approved; the PACE item was moved to a public hearing for further discussion and a formal adoption vote afterward.
